We already had our talk, and he understands if he shows me he can run successfully, you go for it."

Lastings Milledge is ready to prove to the Nationals that they made the right decision in trading for him to be the team's center fielder according to a report on MLB.com. "It didn't surprise me that they traded me," Milledge said. "I was surprised where I went. I didn't think I would be in the same division. You would rather see the Mets trade their best prospect [to a non-division team]." Milledge will look to show his 5-tool talent this year and to put behind him the questions that have dogged him about his show boating and off-field persona. There is no denying the talent and this year he should get the chance to prove he is as good as he thinks he is.
